Introduction to Types of Registers The computer register is defined as the small subset of the data that has fast accessible memory in the central processing unit. For the execution of different computer instructions and programs type of registers are used. There are numerous categories of computer registers that are available for the execution of […]

Introduction to Register Computers have become part of our life and today in the digital world the children are born with mobile phones and it is the first toy for them to play with. More than half of our population work with computers without understanding the basic parts of it and how it works. A

Introduction to Register Memory The smallest and fastest memory in a computer that is not part of the main memory is called Register Memory. This memory is located in CPU as registers where registers can be identified as the smallest elements to hold data. Frequently used data is stored in registers as well as the

Introduction to Cache Memory Types In Cache Memory Types, Cache Memory is a high-speed auxiliary memory that holds frequently accessed instructions and data to make it available to the processor at the shortest possible time thus reducing the overall process cycle time. The cost of this memory is higher than the main memory of the

What is Cache memory? It is a memory component that stores frequently used data. While in operations, to fetch a piece of information the CPU would first approach the Cache for the same. Though it is imperative to say that the RAM is a fast device too, it is not as fast as the Cache

Definition of Heap Memory Heap memory is a part of memory allocated to JVM, which is shared by all executing threads in the application. It is the part of JVM in which all class instances and are allocated. It is created on the Start-up process of JVM. It does not need to be contiguous, and

Introduction to Memory in Computer Memory is a necessary part of the computer. It is a basic need to store and analyze data and accordingly give responses to the commands inferred on the computer by the users. Memory is the storage section of the computer’s functioning. The information for immediate use and for the computer

Introduction to Ethernet Frame Format Ethernet frame format is a continuous pattern of alternative occurring 0’s and 1’s which indicates when the frame is starting and creates synchronization among the sender and receiver. Ethernet frame exist in data link layer of the OSI model (which has 7 layers in it) and is a PDU (aka

Introduction to Multithreading in Operating System Gone are the days when activities are taken up serially one after another, be it in day-to-day life or official work. Doing multiple tasks at the same time, wherever possible, is the order of the day and it is linked to efficiency and agility. It is applicable to the

Introduction to Functions of Operating System The main function of an Operating System is to manage the computer resources well. This function is carried out with the help of the user and hence user interface should be proper and well maintained. Functions of OS help the user to do the tasks assigned to the system
